The Furman Institute of Running and Scientific Training (known as FIRST)
is dedicated to make running more accessible and limit overtraining and
burnout while producing faster race times. FIRST is one of the foremost
experts in the world on the science of running; its authority is
unmatched and the promise of training less and accomplishing more has
made the first two editions of Run Less, Run Faster a solid and steady
seller.
With 50 percent updated content, this new edition of Runner's World Run
Less, Run Faster by Bill Pierce, Scott Murr, and Ray Moss continues to
promise the same tantalizing results: Readers can get stronger, faster,
and better by training less. It will also include more sections for
novice runners, broadening the audience appeal, as well as training
plans tailored to the new qualifying times for the Boston Marathon. The
quality-over-quantity approach optimizes training time and yields better
performance--results runners will love no matter what distance they are
racing.
